It's crazy that time flew by quicker than expected like a gust of wind that flew by in summer

I haven't gone to my vacation yet and my graduation is tomorrow, i'm nervous and excited about that also a bit sad because, i don't where Jordans going to college

I applied to University of California and i'm waiting for that acceptance letter

Ever since, i applied there. I can't seem to relax not knowing that i will be accepted or not

I can't relax thinking that i won't get accepted to University of California. Everyday, i waiting for the acceptance and waste many hours sitting infront of my window, hoping that the postman would came

And now, i'm waiting and watching patiently if the postman arrived and hope that i got accepted into the University of California

Watching people walk pass and children playing soccer outside my window. I saw a familiar man wearing a blue uniform, walking towards my mail box

Quickly getting off my bed. By getting off i meant falling off my bed! Rubbing my back and slowy walk downstairs

I wait for the mailman to put my letter into the mail box, i don't want him to see me in my morning crazy face with dry drool and bird nest hair

Walking to my front door and head to my mail box, opening it to see a letter. I grab it and see it is from University of California

Running back inside and quickly running up the stairs and into my room and slowy walk to my bed

Sitting at the edge of my bed, i look at the letter in my trembling hands. Nervouse yet excited to see what is in that letter

I took a deep breathe and open the letter

I read the letter over and over again to make sure this is real life, i pinch myself on the arm. I got accepted!

I let out an excited scream and hug the letter with a big smile on my face and jumping on my bed

"Honey! What's wrong?! I heard you scream!" My mom and dad barged into my room with a worried look on their faces

"I got accepted!"

My mom lets out a excited squeal and gave me bear hug while my dad looks at me with a proud look on his face

"Honey! I'm soo proud of you!" My mom said with tears in her eyes and she start to kiss me all over my face

"Mom, stop!" I said while groaning and trying to protect my face from my moms kisses

"Darling, that's enough kissing for Adeline. And let me hug her" My dad said as he walks towards me and gives a bear hug

"I'm soo proud of you, Honey"

"Thanks, dad"

"We should celebrate!"

"Mom! No! Tomorrow, i have my graduation, remember?"

"Oh! My baby is growing up soo fast!" She said, hugging me and tears forming in her eyes

After gradution tomorrow, i can go on my holiday with my parents. But, what am i going to do with Stranger?

● ● ●

Standing infront of my mirror with me, wearing a white romper and black cape with my black graduation cap

Today is the day, where i gradute high school and go to college. Excited and nevous at the same time and the sad thing that maybe me and Jordan won't be seeing each other, probably we will meet up with each other on weekends

"Honey! Come on! We're going to be late!" My mom yelled from downstairs

Grabbing my small purse and headdownstairs to see my mom dress in a blue dress with nude lipstick on her lips and her white purse. While, my dad is wearing a white dress shirt with a black blazer and black pants with black shoes

"Adeline, darling. You look beautiful"

"Aw, my baby is growing up!" My mom said, tears forming in her eyes

"Mom! We haven't left the house yet and can we go?"

"Come on! I won't miss my daughters graduation"

Heading outside the house and hop into my dads car and drove off to my school with butterflies in my stomach

● ● ●

Walking to the football field where the graduation ceremony is being held, i walk there with hands covered in sweat and i saw that almost everyone has arrived and i see Jordan waving his hand, i smile and took a seat next to him while my parents to a took a seat somewhere else

"Ladies and getleman! We are gather here today to witness our children grew and developed into adults!"

"This graduation is a celebration for all of your hardwork and dedication! And we hope from this day forward you will continue your academic studies and become a sucessfull people!" The principle said as the spoke on the stage with a microphone

"And i know all of you hate long speeches and i just want to say congradulations to all of my students!"

Everyone clapped at our priciple speech and the next speech is our vice principle and a few other teachers

"The next is your valedictorian of this year is Amy Peterson!"

I knew Amy, she's a good friend of mine and probably my only friemds that is a girl

Her black hair straighted and her big grey eyes shine with happiness

"To my fellow graduates! We have sucessfully completed high school together! And the next is college!"

"High school was a great year for everyone, we had our fair share of laughs, gossip and even tears together. We went a school field trip and football games together!"

"College will start and we will go our seperate ways. But, once you became a college student, became a better person than before!"

"Became that weird, awkward, amazing person that you are! Rmbrace and love yourself because, you are you. You may not be popular or super intelligent but, you are you"

"Lastly, i want to thanked everyone here! From family to friends to teacher for supporting all through those years in high school! Thank you!" Amy said as a few tears escaped her eyes

After Amys speech, the teacher would call our names and give us our diplomas, waiting and waiting for my name to be called

"Adeline Collins!"

Walking slowy and hesitantly because, all eyes were on me. Not glancing at anyone, i made my way up the stage and accept my diploma

"Congradulations, Adeline"

"Thank you, sir" I said and smile at him

Walking down the stage, i look down at my diploma. How proud i am of myself, all that exams, projects, pop quizes, and homework are all worth it because, i finally graduated

After everyone got their diploma, we all had to take a picture of this special moment. Taking a few pictures with teacher and just as students

After taking a millions of pictures with some of my good friends and of course Jordan, we all have to do one last thing and that is throw our graduation caps into the sky

"1... 2... 3!" Amy shouted and all the student threw their cap into the air and fall right back down

I grab my cap from the groud and went over to my parents, i saw my mom with tears in her eyes and my dad hugging me and telling how proud he is of me

My mom took a photo of me and my dad, i remember when it was my first day of school and dad waited for me the whole day and he even has a picture of me when i first went to school. Now, it's my last day of school

"Excuse me, Mr and Mrs Collins. Can i speak with your daughter?"

I turn around to see, of course it's Jason, one of the people that keeps looking for me

"Of course, Sweetie! Go talk to your friend, Adeline!" My mom said, pushing me forward

"He's not my friend, mom" I said, groaning

Jason grabbed my hand and takes to a place not far from parents but, far enough for them not to hear our comversation

Awkward is a thing that i like to describe us now, both of us don't know what to say to each other, not like the past when we can talk about anything

"What do you want Jason?"

"First, congratulations. You graduated"

"Thanks, congrats to you too"

"I know that i have apologized to you soo many times but, i'm sorry. We are probably not going to see each other again and i want to apologize before we go our separate ways"

"I forgive you" I said softly, after much thinking, i decided to forgive him eventhough what he did hurts me. It will be a scar that will remind me everyday that i'm not going to let a boy hurt and break me down

"After all i did to you?"

"Yes, i knew i would forgive but, it takes me quite awhile"

"You never changed don't you?"

"Nope, still the same"

I look over to my parents to see them pointing at their watch asking me to 'hurry up or we'll be late for dinner!'

"Before, you go Sweetheart. There's something i've been meaning to do eversince, i have got to know you"

"What?"

"This."

He kissed me, a sweet goodbye kiss. I stood there frozen not knowing what to do and i kissed him back

It's a sloopy kiss but, more of a sweet quick kiss and he stole my first kiss

He pulled away and put his forehead on mine "Thank you for being my first love, Sweetheart"

My eyes went wide and i look at him as if he was crazy

"I know that i ruined the chance of dating you with my selfish act and i deserve it but, thank you for giving a chance to fall for you"

"And the bracelet you give me?"

"Keep it, it will remind of all the adventures we went together"

"Will you forget me?"

"I would never forget someone like you, my first ever love"

And he leans in and gives me a second kiss that day on our graduation
